Such a pretty time of the year! The trees are brilliant with red, yellow, gold and … Yes, there’s a pop of orange out in the woods by The Voyage this year. Where exactly? Thunderbird will cross Voyage once right here: As you can see, it’s between the second and third hills on Voyage. Of…

Because, you know, just about everybody is wanting to see the latest construction pics of Thunderbird. I half expected that a coaster enthusiast (you know who you are!) might have strapped a video cam on Dasher there and sent him in for a DashCam exclusive. Yes, Thunderbird’s track is heading skyward! We had some fun…

I’ll never forget how much my siblings and I used to pester my father about what was coming. I wish I could calculate just how many times we asked him, “C’mon, can you at least give us a hint?” He’d say something incredibly vague that gave absolutely nothing away like, “It’s big.” (Well, duh, everything…

… and here it is in January and we’re not exactly loving the single digits! We’re heading into a warming trend next week, and you can bet these fellows are looking forward to it: Construction crews are hard at it, getting Hyena Falls built for May. So where exactly will this four in-the-dark slide complex…

Sorry it's taken me more than a week to get these up, but I wanted to share the webcam caps (I think that's short for "captures") that our friend Robert grabbed during the Pilgrims Plunge topping back on the 13th. He was kind enough to give each "cap" a name and quite a few of…

What a nice email (including the subject line, above) from a new friend from across the pond: Good Evening/Afternoon Paula! It is Friday night over here and after a hard day's work I am relaxing at home as I am traveling 2 hours at 7am in the morning to get to Alton Towers for a…

Our Splashcam is back! So, does anyone out there know anybody celebrating a birthday today? In all my years, I've never met a Leap Day baby. …but my son James has a friend from school who is celebrating his second birthday today (he's eight). When I told my mom about this (she and Dad live…

…and find out where it leads you. Actually, the arrow is red, but you know what I mean. These photos are from Pennsylvania, where the three trains from The Voyage are in, well, rehab. I'm not going to make any Lindsay Lohan jokes. Won't even hum that Amy Winehouse song. That would be tacky. But…

Thank you to the various HoliBlog readers who queried as to which particular maladies our webcams might be suffering from lately. Oh, my. It seems the SplashCam didn't survive pulling double-duty as a WindCam last week. John says the camera is okay, but the little control mechanism that constantly changes the view and focus of…

…well, there’s snow, but we’re here. If you haven’t already, you might want to take a look at our Kima Bay Construction Cam, as the sweep of the area shows some lovely precip. (I refuse to call it “the white stuff.”) Last night at home, when I realized it was snowing, I turned on the…

Apparently not… These simians can't wait for May to roll around. After yesterday's torrential rainfall, the Kima Bay area should be renamed Kima Mudhole. However, the sun is out, drying the land, so there should be some interesting activity on our webcams soon.
